[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you have a strong  local family support  network no imo. 
There’s no guarantee how long a Nanny will stay with you. So you will be working long hours and presumably want some sort of social life even if it’s limited. Then the primary caregiver can be gone in a matter of days and you need a new one. How long will that one last  before you need another…… 
I am not a single parent bif my spouse works evenings 4-midnight. The monotony of solo parenting every single night is exhausting. I love my kid but it’s mentally draining. [/quote]

Solo parenting - so you make all the choices for your kids - what to name them, where they get their clothes, which doctor and when, all the vacations, what to do when they are out of school and you pay for everything on your own with your salary?

Your children are up until midnight? They have no bedtime?

You need a social life you get a babysitter. You need a social life you have your friends come over. You need a social life you go on a vacation with your friends and your kid. You need a social life you call a friend while the baby sleeps. This is NOT hard if you need interaction outside of kid and work. Limited yes, but not impossible and not something someone needs to be hyper about without even being pregnant.[/quote]
